PERFECT EASY PEEL HARD BOILED EGGS
If you are frustrated by hard boiled eggs which are difficult to peel, try steaming them instead of boiling. No vinegar, no timing issues. Just steam for your normal boiling time, they come out perfect, even very fresh eggs which are the worst to peel. I found this recipe on Backyard Chickens and figured if anybody knew how to boil eggs they would.

Steps:
- Fill a saucepan with about an inch of water.
- Place your steamer in the saucepan.
- Poke a small hole in the large end of each egg. A pushpin or small screw works well but you can twist the end of a small knife into the shell carefully to make the hole. I've even forgotten about the hole, it still works.
- Put the saucepan on a medium-high heat, when the water comes to a boil, turn down to just above a simmer.
- Start timing from when you turn on the heat. I like 18 minutes.
- Cool in pan or under running water.

Steps:
- Add baking soda to a pot of cold water. Make sure the eggs are covered by 2 inches of water. When the water reaches a rolling boil, let them slow boil 12 minutes; remove from heat. Stop the cooking process by adding ice to to the water. Slightly shortening the recommended length of boiling time leaves the eggs done, but without drying the yolks. As soon as the eggs are cool enough to handle, peel them.
- Tap the end of the egg, remove shell. Tap the other end of the egg and remove shell large enough for the egg to exit. Then you can literally blow the egg out of its shell into your hand. For sanitary reasons, I recommend just removing the shell with your fingers.
- It has been said that the key to peeling them easily is not to let the egg cool all the way, but this video says it's because of the PH level of the water from the baking soda.
Tips for Perfect Easy-Peel Hard-Boiled Eggs:
- Use older eggs: As eggs age, the pH level of the egg white increases, making the egg easier to peel.
- Start with cold eggs: Bringing eggs to room temperature before boiling can make them more difficult to peel.
- Add salt to the water: The salt helps the egg white to set more quickly and makes the shell easier to remove.
- Boil the eggs for the right amount of time: Overcooked eggs will be more difficult to peel.
- Immediately transfer the eggs to an ice bath: This will stop the cooking process and make the eggs easier to handle.
- Peel the eggs under cold running water: This will help to loosen the shell and make it easier to remove.
Conclusion:
With a little practice, you'll be able to boil and peel eggs perfectly every time. These easy-to-follow tips will help you achieve the perfect hard-boiled egg, whether you're making deviled eggs, egg salad, or simply enjoying them as a snack.
